Everything was wonderful! This condo is in a great location. The little extras you had available were also welcome - the park pass made our daily excursions a lot easier, the Deuter bag allowed me to carry something a lot smaller than my normal day pack, and coming home every night made the entire stay worthy of a return visit. We explored as much as possible during our week there, took in recommendations from previous guests, and contributed to the pamphlet pile. The location makes it easy to explore Canmore, Banff, Yoho, Kanaskis, and many other parks in the area! You're also not that far away from Icefields Parkway. Thank you! If we ever stay in Canmore, again, your place will be one of the first we consider.

We had a wonderful time at the condo. It proved to be a great location and very functional. Condo was competitive with others advertised, extras (backpacks, games) definitely add to value. Building type was not mentioned as well as proximity to train...although I can understand you wouldn't want to advertise the train. It turned out not to be an issue it was only slightly disturbing in the early evening but we didn't hear it much otherwise...I'm not sure whether it is better to warn people or not. The fact that it was a commercial building was a surprise. We passed by twice before we realized we had the right address. This is not a deterrent but because we were looking for a traditional condo building it made it more difficult to find. It may be helpful to disclose more clearly in the future. Place was clean as expected. Use of backpacks, movies, games, internet and park pass were all very huge bonuses and much appreciated by us!!!! We would likely stay with you again if our travels take us to Canmore. Overall we did have a wonderful time though thank you for providing the means to give my young family an awesome vacation ( even the baby enjoyed it).
Owner response:Thank you for the great comments and suggestions. Information about the train has been added to our website (rockiesrentals.ca/vacationrentals), and we have updated the driving directions to better describe the building so it is easier to find.

My dogs and I stayed at the condo for almost two months (Jan-Feb 09), and it very much became a home away from home. It's extremely well appointed and super conveniently located. Housekeeping was great, too. I also appreciated the friendly and smooth communication with the owners as well as their attentiveness. Thanks for everything!

The condo was great it had everything we needed for our 2 week stay. The views were beautiful and the location was great. We could walk to everything in town and it was a short drive into Banff. Thanks for everything.

Thank you for renting your beautiful home to us for the week. It was very relaxing to retire to the mountains after long days at the conference. I am already planning a vacation to come back and see what time didn't allow this trip.

We had a wonderful stay in Canmore. We traveled from place to place for l0 days the this was the only condo we stayed in. It was very comfortable and the location was convenient. Having the dvd player and games was a nice touch. My only comment is that the prospective tenant should be told about the stair. It wasn't a problem for us but I think it could be for someone older or with a disability. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend the condo to any couple visiting the Canmore area.

We had a wonderful time in your town and thoroughly enjoyed your home. It had everything we needed and then some! We hope we made it a bit easier for your housekeeper too. Have a good time and thanks again. If you have a "preferred" client list we would love to be on it.
